Thinking of Chester Himes.


Chester Himes was the great black author of over 20 novels, the most famous of which, "Cotton Comes to Harlem," was made into a pretty good movie. His great characters Coffin Ed Johnson and Gravedigger Jones appeared in many Himes' novels, including "Blind Man With a Pistol" which was published 40 years ago.

Blind man with a pistol.

You ask me, it sounds like a management style.
